Contrary to normal expectations, the Deed DOES NOT have to be recorded to be effective or to show delivery, and because of that, the Deed DOES NOT have to be signed in front of a Notary Public. However, if you plan to record it, then it does have to be notarized as that is a County Recorder requirement.
Adding someone to your house deed requires the filing of a legal form known as a quitclaim deed. When executed and notarized, the quitclaim deed legally overrides the current deed to your home. By filing the quitclaim deed, you can add someone to the title of your home, in effect transferring a share of ownership.
Retrieve your original deed. Get the appropriate deed form. Draft the deed. Sign the deed before a notary. Record the deed with the county recorder. Obtain the new original deed.
If you've recently married and already own a home or other real estate, you may want to add your new spouse to the deed for your property so the two of you own it jointly.
